    I needed a Pre-Purchase Inspection at very short notice - Mike fit me in without any issues. His report was extremely thorough with many photos, emailed the same day as the inspection. He responded to a missed call immediately, friendly and professional. Highly recommend!

    Mike is incredible. He is so knowledgeable, supportive, diligent, professional, clear and concise in everything he does. I called him for an initial chat at 6pm, sent our build details at 9pm and he was onsite the very next morning at 10am saving me $1500 in my build. This was all before paying him a cent for his time. I have recommend him at least 10 times and every one who speaks to him ends up using his services. He makes a stressful time with defects so simple. Reports are clear and easy for the builder to rectify. His communication is incredible and his charges are beyond reasonable. 7 stages for under $2000 and knowing we even have support after handover with a 3 month inspection is peace of mind. I would never consider building without using Mike and Sally. Thank you for all you've helped us with so far. Five stars is not enough. 10/10. No hassles trying to chase the builder to fix mistakes and defects when it is in a black and white report for them. You've saved me pain, stress and heartache arguing with a volume builder who couldn't care less.

    I found Mike very professional, responsive, reasonable and thorough in a pre-purchase inspection of an established house. Mike managed to get it done during the cooling off time and explained me all his findings which helped me to further communicate with the property agent. I wish Mike and Sally all the best and would recommend Mike's service to my known circle.

    I was very impressed at the level of service I received from both Sally & Mike. Managed to fit me in during the 2 days cooling off period which eased a lot of stress. Mike called to explain the inspection not long after it was complete and I received the report the next day as promised. The report seemed thorough and the pictures that went with it were high quality. Thanks!

    I engaged with Mike for a pre purchase inspection for a older house mainly to ensure that the property is good enough to stand strong for another 5 years for investment. Mikes report captured a lot of pictures with a conclusion that led me to make a purchase decision. Thanks Mike for your print service and detailed report.

Building Inspection costs & guides

Frequently asked questions

How much do building inspectors typically charge?
Costs vary depending on the type of inspection, property size, report detail and travel required. Many building inspectors charge an hourly rate plus a call-out fee, with higher rates for after-hours attendance. This page shows live pricing to help you compare quotes.
Do building inspectors charge call-out fees?
Yes — many building inspectors charge a call-out fee to attend and assess a property. That fee typically covers travel and the initial assessment and is separate from the hourly rate and any report costs. It's sensible to confirm any call-out or minimum charges when requesting quotes.
Do building inspectors need a licence in Australia?
Yes. Building inspection and certifying work generally needs to be carried out by a licensed or registered building inspector or certifier under state and territory rules. In New South Wales the responsible authority is the NSW Building Commission (formerly NSW Fair Trading). Look for providers who display valid state registration, an ABN with GST registration and appropriate public liability and professional indemnity insurance.
